JOHN F. LARKIN, OF HAETFOBD, CONNECTICUT.
TOWEL Bmnnn.
Application filed November 18, 1921.
To all 'whom %may camera:
Be it known that I, JO-N F. La min, a citizen or the United' StatS resding at Harttord in the County of Hartfordand State of Connecticut, have invented a n'e'w and useful Improvement, in Towel Binders, of which the following is a spec-ification.
In hotels, restaurants and other public places it is common to have individual towels on racks, rods, hooks, or chains so arranged and locked that the towels may be used for proper purposes but cannot be stolen or carred away by unauthorized persons. Towels for such use when clean are commonly tied up at the laundry in bundles of fifty with the holes in the towels in line so that they may be readily threaded on the pin, hook or chain of the anti-theft device where they are placed for use.
This invention relates to a device which is designed to be applied to the towels at the laundry for retaining them in a desirable and convenient condition and arrangement while being transported to the place of use and transferred to the anti-theft device.
The object of the invention is to provide a very simple and cheap device by means of which the towels can be easily bundled together at the laundry and be securely held during handling and transportation in such shape and relation that they can be transterred without loss of time directly from the binder to the anti-theft device.
In the accompanying drawings Figure l shows a plan of a device which embodies this invention, unfolded and in position to receive towels. Fig. 2 shows a side view of the device unfolded. Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of the binder holding a bundle of towels. Fig. 4: is an elevation showing the manner of 'astening the binder strips when holding a bundle of towels.
The device shown has rigid or semi-rigid end pieces l and 2. These end pieces may be made of strips of wood or metal and they are desirably covered with canvas or other teXtile material. The end strips are connected by fleXible bands 3` which may be made of tape, canvas or other suitable ma 50 terial. Attached to the strip 1 between the bands is a fastening tab 4. This tab is desirably made of elastic webb-ing a little shorter than the thckness of the bundle of towels to be held and it has a perforation 55 protected by a grommet 5 at its free end. The end strip 2 has a grommet protected Serial No. 6,1 9,
perforation 6 and the enclst'rip l has a per- 'oration protected by a grom'met 7.
A pin 8 of ood or othersuitablematerial is loosely fitt'ed in the ho-le "through the strip 1. This desirebly has heads 9 and 10 which areslightly larger than the hole so that the 'pin cannotdropout.` i'
In the laundry or other place where the towels are packed, the clean towels are laid upon the binder with the usual openings through them threaded upon the pin. When the required number of towels have been thus piled on the binder the end strip 2 is brought around the towels and its opening 6 thrust over the head of the pin. The end strips are pressed together and then the elastic fastening tab is brought around the end of the bundle and its perforation thrust upon the pin. This fastening tab being elas: 7 tic draws the end strips l and 2 together so that with the bands the towels are tightly bound together. lVhen the towels are bundled in this manner they are usually thrown into the delivery wagon and carried to the place of use where the attendant opens up the anti-theft device, disconnects the fastening tab of the binder 'from the pin and then dsengages the strip 2 and threads the towels upon the pin, hook or chain of the anti-theft device without dislocating them, the anti-theft holding part following the pin 8 down through the openings in the towels as they are placed in position. With this simple Construction towels can be quickly bound in packages and securely held in desired formation during transportation and without loss of time transferred to the antitheft device.
The invention claimed is:
1. Means for binding towels comprising a pair of perforated end strips, fiexible bands connectng the strips, a pin arranged to fit the perforations in the strips, and fastening means for preventing the strips from sep- 1 0 arating when on the pin with a package of towels between.
2. Means for binding towels comprising a pair of rigid strips, one of said strips having a perforation through which a pin loosely extends and the other of said strips having a perforation adapted to fit upon the pin, flexible bands connecting the strips, and means for holding the strips from separating when the pin is threaded through the strips and through towels located between the strips.
3 Means for `bndng towels comprsng a 'pair of perforated strps, flexble bands conmeeting the strps, a` pin a''anged to fit the perforatons in the strps, and fastenng means attaehed to .one of the strps and adapted to engage the pin over the other strip for holding the strps from movng &part When in use. i
4. Means for bndng towes eomprsng a pair of perferated strps, fiexble bands connectng the strps, a pin fittng the perforatiene in the st ps, and ;111 elastic strip fastened to one of the rgd strps and adapted to engege with the pin over the other strip.
5. 'Means fer bndng towels compx'sng e 'gid strip having a pin projectng alt right ungles from its center, a, rgd strip having :L perforaton adapted to fit the pin, flexble hands conneetng the strps, and an elastc strip fastened to one of said rgd strips and adepted teengage With the pin over the other strip.
6. Meens for bndng towels comprsng -gd strips having central perforatons, fiexihle bands connecting the strps, a rgd pin adapted to fit the perforatons in the strps, end aneleste strip arranged to engege With the pin outside of the strps for holding the strps together with a package of towels between.
